vindicareassassin Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 As per title, both are or were Airfix Sdkfz 222s, one now converted to an early Sdkfz 260, all white/brown plastic details added by me plus the green stuff Not happy with the PE turret grills despite them being sold as for the Airfix kit, they plaiin just don't fit, but they're are better than anything I can scratch build so they'll stay. Primer going on in about 10 minutes ATB Sean (Apologies for the poor photos, I work under blue light and its caused some washout ) 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foxy Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 Cracking job on such small kits Sean mate. Having built many of these for war gaming, your conversions and paint job, is right on. Maybe drill out the 20mm is all I can comment on to change. Keep it coming. Foxy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
